Abstract

A first server is configured to receive performance data associated with a first virtual machine. The first virtual machine may be capable of communicating with a client device. The first server is further configured to determine whether the first virtual machine is overloaded based on the performance data, and send an instruction to a second server to generate a second virtual machine based on determining that the first virtual machine is overloaded. The second virtual machine may be capable of communicating with the client device. The first server is further configured to instruct the second virtual machine to communicate with the client device to reduce network load associated with the first virtual machine.
